My Students

I love all my students because they are all unique. They make you smile no matter what. They are the cutest little things. I work in a low income area so therefore a lot of our students do not have much. As we all know we are going through some rough times. These times are only harder for them because most of their parents have lost their jobs. I help as much as I can but I also have a family to take care of. Anything is appreciated because one thing my mother taught me was something is better than nothing.

My Project

Please help us fund our art project. Our little ones will have so much fun creating things that they can be proud of. Any donations will be greatly appreciated. We are a school in East Elmhurst and some of our parents do not have the means to help their kids create a project that they can have as a memory of their first school experience. Thank you in advance . They will be able to create things from their read alouds and being a story to life. We appreciate you.
